The Ocean

It takes the ocean to say goodbye to you
I’ll wait forever I’m gonna’ prove
That I’m not the stone you should’ve skipped
Picked up, thrown off the slip [?]
It takes a moment, so try to catch your breath
Another step on the way to accepting death
I’m not ashamed of what I do
I’m just surprised you never knew
It takes a someone, a someone you can trust
To strip an old sunken ship of all its rust
I don’t think I’m asking for a lot
I never even had a shot
I never even caught the rays
I don’t reach the bottom of the bay

Black widow leave
Say your prayers before you eat
You felt my bones there’s not much meat

It takes a martyr to live a life with you
You’d have to love the hoops you're jumping through
You’d have to hate, telling the truth
But it takes the ocean
It takes the ocean, to say goodbye to you
